https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/4124/nosql-in-axon-ivy<p>Hello, Has anybody had any experiences with Axon.Ivy and NoSQL databases(namely, MongoDB) ? And if so, how did they approach it and what were the benefits/downsides of using NoSQL with Axon.Ivy.</p> <p>I know that Axon.Ivy Has some NoSQL functionality in it, but we are considering to use a more robust external database rather than relying on the internal one. </p> <p>For context, I have some experience in NoSQL and java, Namely in MongoDB using the Jongo driver. Anybody who has done java implementations is also welcome to share their knowledge.</p>enThu, 21 Nov 2019 02:51:38 -0500https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/4124/nosql-in-axon-ivy/4178<p>Update on this issue :</p> <p>We used the Jongo driver from here <a href="https://jongo.org/">https://jongo.org/</a> to connect to MongoDB and use it as our application database. We used a repository model with Business Entities (rather than storing entire process business data) , and everything works fine. There were no strange behaviors and the application performs well.</p>TareqKThu, 21 Nov 2019 02:51:38 -0500https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/4124/nosql-in-axon-ivy/4178https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/4124/nosql-in-axon-ivy/4127<p>depends on the NoSQL approach you are heading for. Each NoSQL flavour has its distinct value.</p> <p>However, if you need a document storage (like MongoDB) I'd prefer the elasticSearch solution:</p> <ul> <li>Monitoring: intertwined with the EngineCockpit, Logs, JMX... ElasticSearch is easy to handle in combination with Axon.ivy</li> <li>API: simple repository centred API with nice update mechanisms (actually inspired by Mongo DB concepts)</li> </ul>Reguel WermelingerMon, 28 Oct 2019 05:32:00 -0400https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/4124/nosql-in-axon-ivy/4127
